He has recently made the transition from being a strongman to taking up boxing – so the reason for the change in his fitness routine is apparent.
The star also recently welcomed a son Stormur Magni with his wife Kelsey Henson, writing in September last year: “After an extremely hard two hours and 19 mins of pushing our healthy, strong, beautiful boy arrived.”
His wife Kelsey took to her own social media page to say: “Our beautiful baby boy made his grand entrance into the world at 11:19 AM on September 26, 2020 after a short and intense six hours.
“The birth was the most powerful, life-changing, empowering thing I’ve ever done in my entire life. We are all doing well and settling in at home as three!”
Hafþór also has a daughter, Theresa, from a previous relationship.
